Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh spinach
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup chickpea flour
- 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly and chop it into small pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.
Add the chopped spinach, chickpea flour, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the eggs. Mix everything until well combined and a thick batter forms.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop 2 to 3 tablespoons of the spinach mixture and form it into a small patty with your hands or a spoon. Place the patty in the heated skillet. Repeat until the skillet is full but not overcrowded.
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to avoid burning.
Transfer the cooked patties to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil while you cook the remaining mixture. Add the second tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet as necessary.
Serve the spinach patties warm as is, or pair with your favorite dipping sauce or side salad.
